Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
하루 종일 하늘에 구멍 난 듯이
난 하루를 다 구멍 낸 채로 창 밖을 바라봐
냄새와 소리는 완벽하게 시계를 바라보는 걸 잊게 해
지금 어딘지 잊게 해
네가 좋아했던
비가 내려오는 밤
너는 막무가내였지 빗속에
헤어진 건
잘한 건데
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
애초부터 난 비가 싫었었어
그 비가 내려 난 이 날씨가 싫었는데
기다리는 건 이 비 일까 그때 너일까
아니면 지금 변했을 나일까
애초부터 난 네가 싫었었어
그래 그냥 그렇게 두면 좋았을걸
기다리는 건 이 비 일까 지금 너일까
아니면 그 때 다 보내지 못한 슬픔일까
I gave you all
But you still gone
I gave you all
But you still gone
(I gave you all) 니가 좋아했던
(But you still gone) 비가 내려오는 밤
(I gave you all) 자꾸 싫댔는데
(But you still gone) 너는 막무가내였지 빗속에
네가 좋아했던 비가 그치는데
그리 좋았었던 순간도 언젠가 있었는데
In the lyrics of Younha's song "Rainy Night," she paints a vivid picture of a rainy night where the singer is feeling melancholic and introspective. The rainy night serves as a metaphor for her emotional state, as it feels like there is a hole in the sky and she herself is feeling empty. Staring out the window, she is reminded of the smells and sounds of the rain, which make her forget where she is at the moment and lose track of time.
The song reflects on a past relationship that the singer both loved and hated. The rain reminds her of the nights when they were together, and even though she disliked them, she acknowledges that her ex-partner was carefree and unbothered by the rain. The lyrics seem to suggest that breaking up was the right decision, even if it was hard to do at the time.
However, the singer also reveals her own conflicted emotions. She confesses that from the beginning, she didn't like the rain or her ex-partner. She wonders if she is waiting for the rain or for her ex-lover, or if she is waiting for herself to change in the present moment. This suggests that there may have been an unresolved sadness or longing that she still holds onto.
The chorus expresses the singer's feelings of giving her all in the relationship, but her ex-partner leaving regardless. It highlights the irony of her disliking the rain that her ex-lover enjoyed on rainy nights. The repetition of the line "I gave you all, but you still gone" emphasizes her feelings of loss and disappointment.
In the final section of the lyrics, the rain eventually stops, but the singer reflects on the moments when the rain brought happiness. It hints at a sense of longing for those special moments they shared, despite the difficulties of their relationship. The lyrics leave the audience with a bittersweet feeling, as the singer looks back on the past and the fleeting happiness it brought.
